Microsoft's Meltdown and Spectre Patch Is Bricking Some AMD PCs (betanews.com)
Mark Wilson writes: As if the Meltdown and Spectre bug affecting millions of processors was not bad enough, the patches designed to mitigate the problems are introducing issues of their own. Perhaps the most well-known effect is a much-publicized performance hit, but some users are reporting that Microsoft's emergency patch is bricking their computers. We've already seen compatibility issues with some antivirus tools, and now some AMD users are reporting that the KB4056892 patch is rendering their computer unusable. A further issue -- error 0x800f0845 -- means that it is not possible to perform a rollback.
Yeah, I've been using Cuban designed CPUs since the 80's and haven't had any of these problems.
It causes the Flux Capacitor to revert to 2D matrix transformations, creating more matrices than normal to compensate for dimension loss, which triggers overflows in the TRXR precision-damper register. Next question?

Surely they can just remodulate the the dampening field to allow for higher dimensional transformations in the instruction capacitor in order to invoke the HCF instruction and BURN IT TO HELL!!!11!1

Do they come in a flat pack with a hex wrench ?
